Corporate training teams need scalable and explainable tools to improve workforce communication in multilingual settings. Existing systems often score text, audio, or video in isolation, or produce black-box outputs that are difficult to audit for coaching use. This paper presents SETU, an agentic ecosystem for corporate communication coaching aimed at recruiters, frontline sales professionals and training units who prepare for audience specific conversations. SETU is designed for two scoped scenarios: (i) recruiter-candidate eligibility-and-interest calls with persona context and (ii) sales pitches with target-audience adaptation; owing to limited evaluation resources, this paper reports results on scenario (ii) only. The ecosystem decomposes analysis into specialized video, audio-speech, text-relevance, scoring, notification and reporting agents coordinated through trust-aware orchestration. It generates modality-attributed coaching reports for formative training, with human reviewers retaining final judgment. The name SETU (bridge in several Indic languages) reflects the goal of bridging communication gaps across regional languages and audience expectations.
Investigating how experienced developers use agents in building software, including their motivations, strategies, task suitability, and sentiments finds that while experienced developers value agents as a productivity boost, they retain their agency in software design and implementation out of insistence on fundamental software quality attributes.
An adaptive surrogate modeling method for problems with very high-dimensional spatio-temporal outputs is developed that combines exploration and exploitation to improve the surrogate model accuracy with the fewest possible runs of the expensive physics-based model.

This review provides a systematic literature review of LLM-based Verilog code generation, analyzing 102 papers (70 published and 32 high-quality preprints) from SE, AI, and EDA venues and outlines a roadmap highlighting potential opportunities in LLM-assisted hardware design.
This work introduces Behavior-Outcome Freedom (F), a pre-synthesis diagnostic of signed behavior-outcome rank mismatch, and formalizes its candidate-conditional role through Signed Anchor-Rank Transfer, which preserves validated capability resources, removes runtime orchestration, and conditionally inherits pipeline guidance using a calibrated rule over F.
